Driving Fruit Under Hot bed Sash.

Popular Gardening suggests that owners
of hot bed sash utilize these for making a
sun drier for drying surplus fruit, The
sash should he elevated On frame four
feet from the ground at the front and a
foot higher behind. a rack with sup
ports for drying trays at four or five
inches apart should be constructed under
the sash, To be reached from behind. The
place of approach for sliding in or taking
out the trays may be covered with ny
screening, the other sides with boards.
The sash will both increase the heat and
keep Off the dews and rains, thus allow
ing the drying to proceed from beginning
to end speedily and with the smallest
possible amount Of bother.

Attractive Arrangement for Flowers.

The floral cone is pretty ornament for
the conservatory or window garden.
American Garden gave recently an illus.

reproduced for the benefit of our readers.
The cut shows the construction and fin
ished side. Four circular shelves are
arranged one above another for founda-
ton, the diameter of the same depending
upon individual taste. A convenient size
for the cone is got by making the lower
shelf IL inches from the ground and the
shelves 10 inches apart from center to
center, with the stand for the pot 8 inches
above the highest shelf. Allowing for q
pot 6 inches high and for the plant in it
to project inches above it, the height of
the cone will be GO inches. For this
height the lowest should be about 80
inches in diameter; the next higher, 33
inches; the next, 81 inches, and the high

are filled with soil, much as pot
would be filled. First is layer
of coarse gravel or broken crockery and
charcoal and then mold within two or

Mis-. Edith A Horner, Noted Engiiah
Nurse.
Senator Joseph II. IIawley Is going to
get married and the sentimental public is
nightly interested in the matter, for the
case has all the elements of n romance.
Not only is the lady an object Of great
personal interest and n real heroine-a
woman with history-but the acquaint-

European voyage. OF course the groom
in such cases is of no consequence, even II
he is a senator or president; the public
wants to know oil about the prospective
bride, and in this case there Is quite
enough Of character and incident.
Miss Edith \. Horner is an English
woman but 30 years old, and yet as an
organizing nurse she has won great
honors. After achieving some reputation
as hospital organizer in England, she was
chosen director Of nurses to accompany
Gen Wolseley in his Zulu campaign.

ness and still more her endurance and de-
votion to duty were so conspicuous and
valuable that she received high honors

Barreling Apples.

Barreled apples are frequently sent long
distances by rail or other transportation,
and the constant joltng and rough hand
ling bruises the fruit If not securely
packed. Hence it is advisable when FILL
ing barrels, at every addition of half
bushel of fruit, to gently shake the barrel,
and thus secure close packing. Fill the
barrel so that quite n number of apples
will be above the level of the upper part,
then place en- the head, above which lay a
bit of plank that will easily fit within the
end of the barrel, and press the head to
its original position by one OF the many
methods used for the purpose.

The Celebrated Walking Man" and
Why He Keeps Going-A
Warning to Others,


AT Mil Grove, Ind, lives John Snider, the
| 'Walking Man." In 1854 he felt muscular and
nervous exhaustion, strange restlessness,
general uneasiness, and the only relief he
could get was by constant walking. For
twenty EIGHT months he has tramped in cir
Gle around and around his house, resting only
four hours each day, and it is estimated he
has covered more space than the circumrer-
ence of the globe. He has attracted universal
attention, been visited by hundreds of curl
ositv seekers, and has really become public
character. His nervousness has shown itself
in walklng;other peoples nervousness acts in
other ways. Sometimes the person is restless.

All people have nervous exhaustion at
times, but only those who are careless permit
1t to continue. When it does continue it runs
into the worst known troubles. which make
life burden and death relief. People who
allow this are alone to blame, for it is COM

solnteiy controlled. By the use of the pure
stimulant tbut not Intoxicant) above named,
these fearful things NAV be avoided. and
health and happiness succeed TO sickness and
misery.
